Fresh off a run of major projects, from hosting his freewheeling live Netflix talk show Everybody’s Live With John Mulaney to starring on Broadway and popping up on The Bear, John Mulaney returns to Orlando with his newest stand-up show, Mister Whatever.

With a new baby and a new marriage, Mulaney has a whole new show full of  material on fatherhood and where he is at in life now. With his awkward self-awareness, Mulaney has made himself one of the most recognizable voices in comedy, and this show promises to keep that momentum going.

Since breaking out as a writer on Saturday Night Live and later with specials like Kid Gorgeous and the Emmy-winning Baby J, he’s become a master at turning personal chaos — and there has been a fair amount — into pointed, hilarious confession.

8 p.m. Wednesday-Thursday, Dec. 10-11, Walt Disney Theater, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, 445 S. Magnolia Ave., drphillipscenter.org, $93-$185.
